Capricious Fancy, with fantastic choice, 115

For distant beauties, gives her casting voice;

To the remotest shores our isle supplies

Turns the faint gaze of her long dazzled eyes;

Shuns the rich plenty of a daily feast,

What most attainable, still valued least! 120

When from the thronged metropolis we rove

To seek the healthful gale, and bow’ry grove;

By the far Lakes, or Caledonia’s shore,

She bids our steps her mazy path explore;
